Dialga and PalkiaDefeat the Elite Four, and unlock the National Pokedex. Go to Mt. Coronet through Hearthome City, as if you were traveling to Sky Pillar. Go through about three caves, until you find a new entrance. Enter it to find orbs needed to battle Palkia and Dialga. Go to the top of Mt. Coronet to where Team Galactic was previously encountered at Spear Pillar. One of the two legendary Pokemon, Dialga or Palkia, will be there. Catch it, then leave and return to encounter the other one. Ultra Balls are recommended.

MespritAfter the encounter in Distortion World, go to Lake Verity, and talk to Mesprit inside the center cavern. Mesprit will flee. The Marking Map App will be needed to track Mesprit. Mesprit is at level 50.

BreedingWhen you submit two Pokemon to the Pokemon Daycare in Solaceon Town, talk to the bald man directly outside immediately afterwards to see if your Pokemon are compatible. If they are not compatible, he will say something similar to “They prefer to play with other Pokemon”. However, if he says anything else like “The two don’t really seem to like each other that much” or “They are getting along great”, it indicates your Pokemon will breed and have an egg. If you use two that are the same kind of Pokemon, for example, one female Eevee and one male Eevee, they will produce eggs quickly. After you have found out their compatibility, get on your bike, and go south to Hearthome City. As soon as you leave Route 209 and enter that gateway room to Hearthome City, you should have an egg waiting for you. Go back and talk to the bald man outside of the Daycare to get your egg. If you have the Daycare Check-up Poketech app, you will see an egg appear between your two Pokemon as soon as you enter the gateway, most of the time. This works quickly almost every time. If you want to have all forms of Eevee, this is ideal.

Griseous OrbSuccessfully complete the game, and return to Sendoff Spring. Cynthia will be gone, and you can enter the cave she was previously blocking. Enter Turnback Cave, and go to the end to find an item and the entrance to the Distortion World. Go through the entrance to find the Griseous Orb.
